Description

bear fruit. is a seat at the kitchen table where we have honest and unfiltered conversations about relationships, faith, life in today’s culture...and everything in between. We’re all on a mission to bear good fruit. But what does that even look like in a world drowning in the stuff they say we shouldn’t talk about? Tune in to the chats millennials usually have when people leave the room.

It's the last episode of Season 2, but it is definitely a treat! We respond to questions straight from our cuzins and y'all had us on the ropes for a couple of them! We discuss the tragedy in Ukraine, thoughts about cosmetic and plastic surgery, opinions about pagan holidays, and much more. We are definitely ending Season 2 with a bang!
We're talking about the church and the faith, and why some people have walked away. We share some of our experiences and our hopes for those who are struggling
As we kick off Black History Month…we’re talking about a longtime issue in our community: colorism. We share our own experiences with this unfortunate cultural practice, and how we as a community can get to a place where we can celebrate all shades of black and brown people.
Cuzins, it's the first #ForTheCulture of 2022 and luckily for us, January has been a busy month! Hear our thoughts about the Tristan Thompson drama, Jason Derulo’s altercation, Nene getting back in the dating scene, and the controversial sermon from Pastor Michael Todd.

Cuzins! We're back for Season 2 of the Bear Fruit Podcast! This episode, we catch up with Dudley and Aly and talk about everything that has happened since we last met. We're also covering the allegations made against Nicki Minaj and her husband Kenneth Petty, the 2020 Summer Olympics and track star Sha'Carri Richardson, the battle royale between Kanye West and Drake, and how we felt about Steve from "Blue's Clues" making a surprise appearance on our timelines.
Cuzins! We've made it to the end of Season 1! But we can't let y'all go without giving you all one more episode of #ForTheCulture. This episode, we talk about the possibility of having a mask-less summer, the announcement of Bill and Melinda Gates splitting, the upcoming Verzuz battle with Bow Wow and Soulja Boy, and our thoughts about the drama surrounding Porsha Williams of Real Housewives of Atlanta. We also reflect on our first season and our favorite moments!
Cuzins...what exactly is community? What does your community look like? Does everyone think like you or is it a melting pot? Today, we’re talking about building relationships and community with people of different beliefs and we’re joined by Pastor Stephen Daigle.

We're talking coins today cuzins. There have always been differing opinions about the taboo subject of money. Is it wrong to desire and pursue it? Is it true that it can't buy you happiness? And why are we so scared and uncomfortable when the topic of money comes up? Aly and Dudley share their thoughts about money and the importance of having a healthy perspective of it.

Cuzins, we know we are not alone. Sometimes, the stresses of life just pile up and it feels like everything is too much! This week, we talk about managing the feeling of being overwhelmed, how we can combat it, and how unfortunately, we may sometimes be responsible for it.
Cuzins! We're taking a detour from our usual schedule to share something very close to us that we would love to have your support on! This week, we talk about our ministry, RESET, and how you can help us reach hundreds of students and leaders in our region. For more info about RESET, visit resetcamps.org.
This week, it's the fellas turn to grill the ladies at the Beauty Shop! Dudley gets the scoop from the women about being the initiators, how they feel about making more money, dating men with kids...and if cheating is a deal breaker. We're joined by Briana Guillory and Dr. Jasmine Wise.
Ladies! Have you ever wanted to visit a Barbershop and ask random questions to hear the perspective of men? Well, here's your chance! Aly chats with Dudley and two of our male friends about first impressions, gender roles, expectations, and more. We're joined by special guest Carlos Martinez and Austin McCann.

Body image, accomplishments, finances, intelligence...so many of us carry these around everyday: insecurities. This week, Aly and Dudley get transparent about some of their insecurities, how they came to be, and how they've dealt with them. 
Friends, tribe, partners...we all hopefully have some type of village. These are the people we do life with. But finding a village (or finding the right village) may be challenging. Our guest, Paul Calcote, joins us as we talk about the importance of villages, how and if we mix them, and if it's possible to outgrow them.
Another month down, so we're talking all things “for the culture.” To wrap up the month of March, we chat about the women's NCAA controversy, the #StopAsianHate movement, the follow-up to the classic, "Coming 2 America," and share our thoughts about the shocking Oprah interview with Prince Harry and Meghan Markle. We're also celebrating Women's History Month as Alyson encourages all of our female cuzins!
Cuzins, we had to call an emergency family meeting with a special edition of our series #ForTheCulture. This episode, we have an unfiltered conversation about a few people who made headlines recently: New York Governor Andrew Cuomo, Hip-Hop couple T.I. and Tiny, the late Christian apologist Ravi Zacharias, and of course, Gospel artist Kirk Franklin. Sexual abuse and misconduct, emotional abuse and trauma, accountability and cancel culture. Does cancel culture have a limit? What's the ceiling (and what's the floor)?
If you've ever reached a point in your life where things felt foggy and you were unsure about what you should be doing, we have some fruit to share with you. This week, Dr. Jasmine Wise talks with us about purpose and overcoming some of the fears that may prevent us from walking confidently in it.
